New suspicions in Kyiv land-grab corruption scheme
Suspicions were raised against the former deputy head of the Kyiv City State Administration and his accomplice.
According to the investigation, they tried to appropriate two land plots in the capital using the so-called "toilet scheme."
We are talking about the events of 2023-2024. Then the suspects registered "buildings" in the names of fake persons, which were allegedly built on these sites in the early 90s.
These "objects" were then purchased by controlled companies, which applied to the Kyiv City Council with applications for the formation of land plots for servicing the "buildings" and the transfer of these plots for their use.
And although law enforcement officers do not name the former deputy head of the Kyiv City State Administration, according to media reports, it is Petro Olenych.
Petro Olenich is also a suspect in the EBK base.
According to NABU, in order to secure the right to the land, the suspects, together with a deputy of the Kyiv City Council, the head of the land commission, organized the construction of primitive structures on it, the so-called "toilets", the production of technical passports and the registration of ownership rights to them.
In addition, according to the investigation, participants in the corruption scheme paid money to representatives of law enforcement and regulatory bodies so that they would turn a blind eye to the unauthorized construction. The identities of these people have not yet been established, the NABU noted. According to investigators, the amount of potential damage to the territorial community of Kyiv is over 19.5 million UAH.
We also reported that a judge in Transcarpathia was detained for taking a $1,300 bribe.
